[Another two weeks passed since mom died. Dads been ignoring me most of the time.]
Athena: Dad
Nick: What?
Athena: I get that your anger at me or disappointed, but I did what I had to do to end her suffering. I'm not saying what I did was right. I'm saying that it was necessary. So let out your anger out or do whatever you have to but don't shut me out because all we have is each other.
Nick: I'm not angry or disappointed I'm just sad you had to put your own mother down.
Athena: We should keep going if we push further, we could make it to King County, Georgia. Which means food, gas, and a car to Atlanta.
Nick: And a place to lay low
Athena: Right
-*-*-*-*-*-
[We got to King County and decided to stay in a house for the night.]
Nick: It's late get some sleep, ok?
Athena: Okay
-*-*-*-*-*-
[Dad woke me up early in the morning. I grabbed my bow and arrows and backpack with my stuff, and we headed to a department store for supplies. Dad went in first with me behind him. We got gas tanks and went to a gas station. I went inside the station while dad got gas. I went to check the backroom when a walker had attacked me out of nowhere.]
Athena: DAD HELP ME!"
[Then my dad came in and killed the walker. He turned around but when he did another walker had bit him on the shoulder. I immediately grabbed the pocketknife I dropped and stabbed the walker in the head.]
Athena: Dad!
Nick: I'm okay don't worry come on let's go its getting dark.
[We held up at a farm dad was getting sick fast really fast.]
Nick: I'll turn
[I started to cry]
Athena: No please don't turn into one of them, don't leave me.
Nick: I don't have a choice. You have to end it.
[Then a walker came in the farm I used my dad's bat to hit it in the head until the walker was dead.]
Athena: I did it, I got it.
Nick: See you can take care of yourself.
Athena: No not all the time.
Nick: Yeah, you can. Don't worry.
[I went to grab the gun. I turned to him.]
Nick: Hey your strong Athena. You can do anything you're a survivor.
Athena: But I'm little
Nick: Doesn't mean anything. You'll see bad stuff. But it's okay.
Athena: First mama now you... Please don't become one of them.
Nick: There's only one thing you can do.
Athena: I don't think I can.
Nick: Yes, you can your strong and brave and I love you.... My daughter... My heir... You are my heart.
Athena: I love you too.
Nick: I'll miss you
Athena: Me too.
[I grabbed the gun my hands were shaking as I pointed the gun to my dad's head and put the gun down for a second then held it back up, I turned my head and closed my watery eyes then pulled 3.2...1 I pulled the trigger.]
It was mom, me, and Dad
Then
Me and Dad
And
Now
I'm Alone
